You pretentious little prick.<br><br>Your entire spiel shows that you do not support the troops or their mission. You support having guys match around quads in uniform and impressing their parents. You support guys shooting at targets - but god forbid they point those guns at a live person. You support letting the Iraqi people suffer wholesale murder at the hands of other Iraqi people or thugs who just want control over the country so that they can become the new petty dictator on the block.<br><br><br><br>We all do what we do for the same reason: because it seems like a good idea at the time.

_________________________I used to think it was terrible that life was unfair. Then I thought what if life were fair and all of the terrible things that happen came because we really deserved them? Now I take comfort in the general unfairness and hostility of the universe.

no, I think it's your head collapsing due to the EXTREME VACUUM !! <br><br>what in the F is wrong with you Skul? (good name for someone who acts like a bonehead)<br><br>- someone shows respect and sensitivity and you still knock it.<br>OH I forget - respect and sensitivity aren't in YOUR dictionary.<br>I still don't agree with the war- but that doesn't mean I don't respect and care what happens to the troops!! I want them home -SAFE !! <br><br>you just can't see they can be INCLUSIVE... with you and a few other it's always DIVISIVE.<br><br>THAT was the mistake of Vietnam- many anti-war people directed some of their anger the the troops= foot soldiers taking orders, instead of at the azzholes who planned and RAN it, and made all the MISTAKES.<br><br>So be clear Skul - my animosity and disgust is NOT at the Troops- it's at the LIARS and IDIOTS in DC running this fsckUp. Apparently I'm NOT alone according to the latest Polls and the number is GROWING, pal !! <br><br>Wake up and smell GW's bull shiite!<br><br>David (OFI)<br><br>PS THIS IS FUNNY !!<br><br>at the Senate hearings today!<br><br>"Citing what he called repeated "gross errors and mistakes" in the U.S. military campaign in Iraq, Kennedy told Rumsfeld: "In baseball, it's three strikes, you're out. What is it for the secretary of defense?"<br><br>I only agree with Teddy about 50% of the time, but he's right on this one - how many fsckups does a Sect get ??

My entire spiel shows I don't support military disasters like Vietnam or Tripoli !! ...ever heard of that?<br><br>if you support the senseless loss of life on a Pack of LIES- then you don't really support the troops. They should never be sent in harms way unless it's absolutely necessary. This was NOT... people are waking up to that, Lues. <br><br>And the fact they were rushed without all the body armor needed, or vehicle armor they needed showed a wreckless leadership who really did NOT care about their well being as much as he did his own POLITICAL AMBITIONS !! IF one really wanted to "go, Saddam wasn't going anywhere, they could have been better prepared - course then GW's "little secret" would have emerged- Saddam had NO WMDs !!<br><br>Much to our chagrin we can't replace every dictator at our will around the globe.. so why'd we pick Saddam instead of say Sudan? or N Korea, or Lybia ?... OIL !! (Haliburton)<br><br>David (OFI)<br>

have a bit of TRUTH !! <br><br>and this isn't any LIBERAL saying this -<br><br> General: Insurgency NOT weakening <br><br>"The top American commander in the Persian Gulf told Congress on Thursday that the Iraqi insurgency has not grown weaker over the past six months, despite a claim by Vice President Dick Cheney that it was in its "last throes."<br><br>NOW who's LYING !! ??<br><br>David (OFI)

DLC....<br><br>What is it with you? Time after time you refuse to acknowledge the pile of facts about Iraq and instead you whip out the blinders and put your brain on 'loop'. 'WMD's!'<br><br>Hey, DLC, what time is it?<br>"Bush lied! WMD's"<br><br>Looks like it's going to be a warm day.<br>"Bush lied! WMD's"<br><br>Iraq violated UN resolutions repeatedly over several years<br>"Bush lied! WMD's"<br><br>What's 1 + 1?<br>"Bush lied! WMD's"<br><br>You're a broken record, man. Blind, deaf, and most certainly DUMB. <br><br><br>Oh, as for the sucking up bit? Yeah, you're twofaced also. Nice word crafting, though. You support our troops in coming home safe. <br>How about supporting them in the task they are shouldering? How about letting them know that if they need us, for what ever reason, you've got their back, which you don't. You will do anything to hamper their duty to this country and the people of Iraq. <br>Your statement just flittered off your tongue, "I DO have sympathy for the Iraqis on the street and I didn't like what Saddam did, but...." But? But what? They discovered thousands of bodies in mass graves. But? Women were routinely raped. But? Men were yanked off the street to never be seen by the families again. But?<br><br>You idiot. You have no sense of the depth of what was going on there. You rant and rave over these bastards having to sit in a hot room. Where is your outrage at the beheading of innocent Americans at the hands of the terrorists? Where are your posts about that? Anywhere? No? That's right. No. None.<br>You piss and moan about Gitmo while overlooking the slaughter of innocent people in Iraq. If you had a single living brain cell you'd understand that when our troops pull out, the terrorists will continue to murder people in Iraq until they regain power. <br><br>So, that's okay with you, is it? Just pull out and let these people die? Because why? Because they're not white? Because they're not Americans? <br>How far would you travel to save a life? Across the room? These soldiers believe in what they're doing. They might not agree with the politics that got them there, but they are saving lives and fools like you want to pull them out because there are no WMD's. You're not just stupid, you're dangerous.<br><br>

<blockquote><font size=1>In reply to:</font><hr><p>"We see good progress in both Iraq and Afghanistan... But we are realistic. And we know that great change is often accompanied with violence. We are not trying to paint a rosy picture," Abizaid said.<br><br>Told by Levin, the committee's senior Democrat, that his assessment directly contradicted Cheney, Abizaid said: "I don't know that I would make any comment about that other than to say there's a lot of work to be done...I gave you my opinion."<p><hr></blockquote><p><br>Since when did subjective opinion become TRUTH. Sure it might be the general's truth, but it is based on his subjective view of the state of Iraq. Now I accept that he is calling it as he sees it - just as many people were calling Saddam had WMD's during most of 2002. But the only people who know the truth of the situation concerning the insurgency are the insurgents themselves. And I'm afraid I haven't found anyone willing to ask them personally how it's all going for them.<br><br>There are three sides to every story - your perception, my perception and actuality. But you have to have an open mind to accept actuality.<br><br><br><br><br><br>We all do what we do for the same reason: because it seems like a good idea at the time.

What a load of fscking bullsh!!t! If you think people like David or me are the problem, then it is YOU who is either severly misguided or you have already lost. "streets of Baghdad" or not, you have no idea. <br><br>This with us or against us bullsh!!t has got to go. Period!<br><br>
